Willingham, LF Beltre, A, DH
Morales, K, DH Rios, A, RF

Escobar, E, 3B Gimenez, C
Fuld, CF Sardinas, 3B
Florimon, SS Odor, 2B
  Correia, P   Tepesch, P
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 R H E
Minnesota 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 4 4 6 0
Texas 2 0 0 0 2 0 0 1 x 5 8 1

Have to credit the Twins for finally mounting a come back in the 9th inning, but if you take 8 innings off, you really can’t expect things to work out well in the end.

Like seeing Jorge Polanco with that triple in the 9th that put the Twins in shape to complete that come back.  – JC

This week we spend time talking about the series of roster moves and player swaps that lead to Jorge Polanco being called up from High-A Fort Myers to the Big League club. We talk about Byron Buxton‘s rehab, Kendrys Morales finally hitting a home run for the Twins, and the Twins’ struggles on the road. We go Down on the pond and talk about Pat Kelly (Cody and Jay interviewed Pat but the audio did not come through clearly, so we have a write up on that interview coming soon) and what he’s been doing since he was drafted in the 12th round of the 2014 draft.

We talk beer, baseball, and we take some questions for the listeners.

Thanks for sticking around!
